This Land Oakland – Outside

THIS LAND OAKLAND
Sarah Bush Dance Project invites you on a journey through a series of free site-specific performances to celebrate the wild of our city and ourselves. In a time defined by constant distraction, SBDP calls us back to this incredible landscape of Oakland, from the developed and designed to its watery edges, enchanted redwoods and scenic hills.
Abandon your routine.
Bundle up for a new adventure.
Let’s find our wild!
Join SBDP for each of these free, 20-minute, site-specific performances:

“This project acts as a personal commentary on the state of our world and our shared communal spaces, and challenges our audience to see their world differently through the context of dance. Everywhere becomes our stage.” – Jeanette, SBDP dancer
